Another Nominee With Tax Problems from Truthdig: Drilling Beneath the Headlines


What exactly was the point of that endless questionnaire Team Obama famously had prospective worker bees fill out? A fifth Obama nominee has run into some controversy, the fourth due to a failure to pay taxes, although in the case of Labor Secretary-designate Hilda Solis, her husband is to blame.

It seems Mr. Solis recently had to settle $6,400 in tax liens on his business. Those aren't exactly Tom Daschle proportions, but it makes one wonder, given how rampant this has been among the select group of Obama nominees, whether anyone actually pays their taxes.

No wonder we have such a huge deficit.
